Given the prominence of the sustainable environment movement worldwide, no well-managed business today should be conducted without an awareness of the tenuous balance between the health of the environment and corporate profits. It is quite simply good business practice for executives to be aware that their enterprise’s long-term sustainability, and indeed its profitability, depend greatly on their safeguarding the natural environment. Sustainability with a circular economy approach deals with actions and a way of life that considers the continuity of future generations. It is deeply rooted in doing what is moral/ethical. A simple definition of sustainability is the ability to be maintained at a certain rate or level. This means not only the environment, but also natural resources, human resources, product supply chains, and multiple related concepts. Companies ignoring this interrelationship between people, business and the environment not only elicits public condemnation and the attention of lawmakers who listen to their constituents but also risk destroying the viability of (the companies) themselves. Virtually all businesses depend on natural resources in one way or another. Ergo, it is unjust to take actions that benefit the current generation at the detriment of future generations all in the name of just making a profit or being the next (unethical) unicorn or big global brand. Finally, business leaders should note that intentional planning of current business activities or the establishment of new ventures in a responsible eco-friendly manner promotes the continuation of a better world. A world in which they also live in with their families/loved ones. Here is a study that says "Just 100 companies responsible for 71% of global emissions" Link: https://lnkd.in/dJBpzSdY

THE BATTLE FOR EARTH'S CLIMATE WILL BE FOUGHT IN AFRICA by Jack A. Goldstone. In 2019, for the first time, CO2 emissions in both the European Union and the United States declined. Much of the planet’s hope for maintaining a livable climate depends on that trend continuing, and the focus of emissions reductions skews heavily towards the actions of the world’s largest emitters, which are largely concentrated in North America and Asia. The actions of countries in these regions—especially the United States, China, and India—are key to global success on climate. But on their own, they will not be enough. In discussions of climate change, African countries are usually portrayed as victims of climate impacts, rather than as contributors to the crisis. Historically, the continent has contributed the least of any global region to fossil fuel emissions, yet it is already experiencing some of the world’s most dramatic changes in terms of drought, flooding, heatwaves, and viable land use. Often missing from these conversations is the recognition that African countries are in fact critical partners for global climate change response. Under President Biden’s leadership, the United States is working to re-establish its leadership on international climate action and is taking steps to break with the previous administration’s foreign policy. As African countries take steps to grow their economies, ensuring that climate dialogues and decision-making are inclusive of the continent’s needs and priorities will be key to ensuring that future emissions from the region do not eclipse progress made elsewhere. It will take a global effort, enlisting the energy and contributions of Africa’s own youthful activists, skilled engineers, and patient leaders, spurred by investments and encouragement from abroad, to build a low-carbon future that nonetheless supports and propels Africa’s rapid economic growth. Africa’s Future Impact on Global CO2 Africa is both the world’s sole remaining region with a rapidly growing population and the most rapidly urbanizing region. At the same time, it starts 2021 as the world’s least energy-consuming region per capita. That energy deficit needs to be addressed if Africa’s economies are to develop. Africans need and have a right to more consumer electricity use, more transportation, more energy input to agriculture and manufacturing, more housing construction. There are vast differences in populations, economies, governments, and societies across the continent. What almost all African countries share today, however, are very low levels of greenhouse gas output, and very large, youthful, and rapidly increasing populations eager to build and share in the benefits of modern economies. Sub-Saharan Africa produces, on average, only .8 tonnes of CO2 per person per year, compared to a global average of 4.8 tonnes. However, highly developed and coal-dependent South Africa produces nearly ten times that per person, while the low-population but oil-rich countries of Libya and Equatorial Guinea produce nine and five times that much, respectively. But these are the exceptions; the largest country in Africa in terms of population, Nigeria, emits below the average level (.7 tonnes per person per year), while most other countries, whether giants like Ethiopia, the DRC, and Tanzania, smaller countries like Mali and Niger, or medium-sized countries like Mozambique, all currently have CO2 output that is almost negligible, at .1 to .3 tonnes per person. For comparison, per capita CO2 emissions in the United States are 16.2 tonnes. Africa’s continued transformation will involve both rapid increases in population and major increases in energy use per capita. The trajectory of how that energy is produced—whether Africa follows the fossil-fuel path taken by other developing regions, or embarks on a novel trajectory in which renewable energy dominates—will thus have a disproportionately large impact on our climate’s future. To date, Africa’s CO2 emissions from commercial and industrial activity have been minimal. In 2018 the continent’s largest emitter of CO2, South Africa, emitted only 6.6 percent as much of this greenhouse gas as the United States, and only 3.5 percent as much as China. That same year Africa as a whole emitted 1.45 gigatonnes of carbon dioxide total, less than Russia by itself. 75 percent of that comes from just five fossil fuel dependent industrializing countries: South Africa, Algeria, Nigeria, Egypt, and Morocco. Even compared to India’s 1.9 tonnes per person per year CO2 emissions, Africa’s annual output per person of 1.1 tonnes per year remains modest (for reference, India’s population is comparable to the population on the African continent). In short, Africa’s fossil fuel consumption to date bears no responsibility for the world’s rapid climate change.[a] Even on an income-adjusted basis, African countries are low CO2 producers, given that it is not only that their incomes are lower than developed countries, but the structure of their economies differs as well. In 2019, the income per person in the United States was USD$65,000 (PPP terms); in Ethiopia, it was USD$2,320. The difference is thus a factor of 32; yet CO2 output per person in 2019 in the United States was 160 times that of Ethiopia (16 tonnes per person per year versus 0.1). If we look at Nigeria, which is more urbanized and developed than Ethiopia, U.S. income per person in 2019 was 12 times higher, but the U.S. CO2 output per person was 23 times higher. In short, the inequity in energy consumption between Africa and the U.S. is even greater than the inequities in overall economic development and income. But Africa’s CO2 output per person has been growing fast—much faster than its population. That is to be expected as increases in income and urbanization lead to higher per capita fuel and electric consumption. From 1950 to 2016, Africa’s CO2 emissions increased by a factor of 14. Today, Africa is home to 1.3 billion people; this number is projected to grow to 3 billion by 2060. If CO2 emissions per capita by that date were merely to rise to the level of India today, Africa’s total CO2 output would quadruple to 5.8 gigatonnes of CO2 per year—the same level as U.S. emissions today. Put another way, if by 2060 African energy use produces the same emissions level per person as India does today, then even if China, the United States, India, Russia, Japan, and Germany were ALL to cut their CO2 emissions by 20 percent by 2060, it would not offset the increases to CO2 output from Africa. If in forty years, Africa’s population as a whole should reach the emissions per capita level of such countries as Egypt (2.5 tonnes per capita per year) or Botswana (3 tonnes) have today, then by 2060 the increase in CO2 emissions on the continent would be so large as to entirely offset even a 60 percent decrease from today’s levels in China. In short, climate decision-making and investment that is not inclusive of Africa’s economic growth priorities and does not support a clean energy transition on the continent will undercut the world’s efforts to achieve desired global emissions reductions. Increases in African countries emissions per person to very moderate levels over the coming decades would produce total emissions growth so large as to overwhelm efforts made elsewhere by high-emitting countries to reduce global CO2 emissions. In other words, Africa’s trajectory on energy generation and fossil fuel use does not matter only to the region’s future—because of the low base of current energy use and its rapidly growing and youthful population, the continent’s future energy trajectory matters to the entire world, as much as that of any other major region.

Top global leaders: We are solving the climate crisis (Lies Lies Lies). They ain't addressing the #ClimateCrisis, rather they are just pushing global funds and support around the western world creating more use for energy consumption, thereby increasing the global temperature and leaving vulnerable countries who are least emitters helpless and severely affected. Most African countries are currently experiencing massive food shortage because of climate change. Families with Children don't have enough to eat. Crops, businesses, and people's livelihood are being destroyed day after day. How will you be able to solve a problem adequately when you have never experienced it in your entire life? When you have zero clues of what it feels like? How? And then we ask for little help to fix this crisis we didn't start and we get a big NO, but we are expected to perform some magic in playing our part. Sad! This is why no real change is happening. Wondering why this is very personal or why I am so disappointed and sad? Because my hometown with hundreds of other hometowns is seriously affected by this. But of course, we have to keep planting the trees so they can sleep well at night while we stay awake due to hunger, homelessness and more caused by the climate crisis we didn't even start. If there is anything worse than a Climate Warning, you folks at the UN Climate and other global leadership organizations deserve it. 2030 is just around the corner and you folks are still playing golf with this crisis?

Once again, as an Australian, I cringed when my illustrious leader, Scott Morrison, decided to share his strategy with the world by “fudging the truth” on our climate change strategies. What an embarrassment he was to my people and to our credibility on the world stage. Erroneous remarks about emissions and targets just added to the growing belief that he has no capacity to lead a country that is built on the profits of mining, into a new age of renewable energies and technologies. I implore any Australian to act for change by doing the right thing and voting this man and his money grubbing party out of office before they isolate us from the world with their antiquated views on saving the planet!

Powerful text. I'm not sure if the UNFCCC is the culprit here (I actually believe they agree with you) but they can definitely benefit from your message and pass it onto the world leaders who need to step up.
•
157 w
Thanks for your input Adam, but I am holding the UNFCCC accountable on this one. Why? Because it is their job and if they find it cumbersome to execute, they should pass the task to another organization that can. Why should they be holding onto a sensitive job or project they can't complete or execute excellently? If they can't bring the world leaders to take a stand on climate, then they should pass the task to a more competent organization. Have you seen what's happening in communities around Africa? Have you seen the destruction? Loss of livelihoods and more? These affected regions, businesses, people, families, children are to keep waiting until they give up or die? They should end the task of UNFCCC completely and give a more competent organization that can bring everyone's head together to make real change happen. The folks in UNFCCC together with top global leaders are just speaking big grammars over people's lives and properties. The same grammars we have been hearing for over a decade with no real action plan. This is incompetence at its highest and I am very disappointed at them.

This important issue was also highlighted at the We Don't Have Time, Earth Day Event yesterday. We are the least polluters but the most affected. All funds & support goes to the western world and only peanuts come to Africa. And it's also important to note that we do a lot of incredible climate work. We even plant most of the trees. But when it comes to supporting us especially young climate organizations (the real backbones behind the climate movement in Africa), we get zero replies/support. Most environment/climate organizations in Africa run their operations from their little savings, salaries, etc and they perform far better than some western organizations. Now imagine how great they will excel if they get the right support needed. This is not fair. So many talks about supporting Africa / African climate organizations, but it's all talks. Most support from top government corporations goes to the western world who are merely affected by the climate crisis leaving vulnerable countries helpless. Most of them don't even understand the problem, just as much as we do here in Africa. We are paying for the sins we didn't commit and yet, we get zero support to fix it. Just as Ingmar Rentzhog stated at the Earth Day Event, there is no time to sugarcoat anything. We have to tell truth as it is, even if sounds scary because that's the only way we can create the right change. I am tired of all these lies and talks about solving the crisis when we know vulnerable countries who are the least emitters ain't at the heart of these decision-makers in top global organizations. But of course, we will keep planting the trees and paying for the sins we didn't commit while we get little / zero support. No more sugarcoating. Let Nature judge us all.

Bill Gates believes that future generations will need to be open-minded when it comes to accepting new technologies aimed at combating climate change. “We want to be open to ideas that seem wild,” Gates said on Friday in his most recent Ask Me Anything session on Reddit. The billionaire Microsoft co-founder’s ninth Reddit question-and-answer session (his first was back in 2013) focused on climate change, both in terms of the steps he personally takes on a daily basis to reduce carbon emissions and how people in the future will have to continue embracing developing technologies aimed at tackling the impending crisis. https://www.cnbc.com/2021/03/23/bill-gates-be-open-to-ideas-that-seem-wild-to-fight-climate-change.html

President Paul Kagame has urged global leaders to prioritize climate adaptation in the course of the year, and beyond, citing that increased investment in the area strengthens societies for future growth and prosperity. Kagame was speaking during this year's climate adaptation summit, held virtually on Monday, January 25 through 26. In his remarks, the Head of State stressed that as the world works to slow the pace of climate change, similar efforts must be gathered towards mitigating its effects. "Climate change after all is a fact, which calls for social and economic resilience, to protect livelihoods, I thank the Prime Minister Mark Rutte and the Netherlands Government for spearheading this initiative, which helps set the stage for COP-26, later this year," he said.

President Filipe Nyusi is set to embark on a trip to areas affected by Cyclone Eloise, as damages are being assessed in Mozambique and neighboring countries, after it struck three days ago. "Thoughts and prayers alone won't fix the climate crisis at the heart of the cyclone," said Happy Khambule, Greenpeace Africa Senior Climate and Energy campaigner. "Extreme weather conditions will become more intense and its consequences for communities more severe, unless President Nyusi and his counterparts in the Southern African Development Community take serious climate action." Cyclone Eloise is the third cyclone to hit the Mozambican coast since 2019, affecting more than 250,000 people, displacing at least 18,000 and destroying schools, roads, and other vital infrastructure. In 2019, Cyclone Idai and Kenneth caused extensive flooding in Mozambique, Malawi and Zimbabwe, damaging more than 100,000 homes, killing more than 1,200 people, triggering cholera and diarrhea outbreaks and costing approximately US$2.2 billion to local infrastructure.

Africa: Rural and urban authorities must follow planning laws, keep development out of wetlands, and ensure wetlands are not degraded so they can absorb heavy rainfall and keep people safe, Environment, Climate, Tourism and Hospitality Industry Minister Mangaliso Ndlovu said yesterday. Poor planning and illegal development in wetlands, coupled with poor storm water drains even on land suitable for building, has seen 250 houses hit by flooding in Harare, another 1 500 in Chitungwiza and others in Mutare and Gweru. In Zimbabwe, wetlands make up around four percent of the country including dams and lakes. But only 21 percent of wetlands are stable, while 18 percent are severely degraded and the 61 percent in between are moderately degraded. Preliminary assessments show that flooding in Harare has affected over 250 households in areas around Budiriro 5 and 2, parts of Sunway City close to Zimre park, sections of Willowcreek and Good Hope in the Mount Hampden area. About 1 500 houses in Chitungwiza have also been affected while reports of the same incident have been made in Mutare and Gweru. Delivering his World Wetlands Day in Harare yesterday Minister Ndlovu said wetlands played critical functions which included protecting people from floods, droughts and other disasters and providing food and livelihoods to millions of people. They support rich biodiversity and stored more carbon than any other ecosystem. He urged local authorities to work closely with the Environmental Management Agency and ensure environmental impact assessments are made before all developmental projects as the Ministry would not hesitate to take legal measures against those who do not comply.

Telling the Story of Your Business’ Good Work in the World—Part 5: 3 EASY, EFFECTIVE WAYS to GET INSIDE YOUR CUSTOMER'S MIND - - - - - - - - - - Here we go in this new year that promises—if nothing else—not to be boring… Picking up from Part 4 of this series, we’re talking about forging a genuine connection with your ideal customer—the type of individual out there who is inspired to invest their time, money and loyalty in what you offer. Previously I’ve written about WHAT you need to know about this ideal customer to engage in meaningful conversation (a.k.a. marketing) with them, to develop a real connection and engage their trust in your brand. Now…HOW do you find out these things you need to know? What, specifically, can we do to get inside the customer’s mind? Here are my top three recommendations for this—and you can start with any of them today: 1. Know where they go…and go there. These days, of course, this is all about where your people are online. Identify blogs, news sources, online events, Facebook pages and groups, Instagram channels and other social media where your kind of people are spending time. And definitely check out your peers’ and competitors’ online platforms. Once you’re there, browse posts or comments. Look for the clues to who this ideal customer is, what they value and all the other valuable insight I’ve discussed in earlier parts of this series. 2. Survey online. This is a tried and true method, and something you can do with your current customer base. If you’re selling products online you can implement it as an automated part of your marketing—for example, sending a simple online survey toward the end of an online course or after they have purchased a product. Successful surveying is both art and science. Make sure you ask clear, specific questions—and not too many of them. 3. Just ask. This is my favorite method. It involves contacting key customers and requesting 10 minutes of their time. In my small business, I generally send a quick email first, transparently explain why I’d like to call them, let them know I value their insight, then schedule a time. Keep it concise. If you say 10 minutes, keep it to 10 minutes. Have a few key questions prepared, based on the ideal customer insight discussed earlier in this series. For a smaller business, speak to 5 to 10 customers at minimum. Larger businesses can aim for more. And make this a regular practice—ideally systematizing it so it becomes a part of your standard business process. If you’re a new business and don’t have a large client base yet, identify a few people you know who fit your general ideal client mold, and ask them for those 10 minutes instead. Next time, I’ll be writing about how to talk to your prospects and customers about the good work you do in the world—in a way that actually matters to them. In the meantime…what’s YOUR favorite way to get to know your ideal customer?

We're happy to announce that the #WeDontHaveTime Climate Conference organised by Afrigod has just been featured in the Nigerian Prime Health News Magazine. Prime Health News Magazine: Miguel Peters, the founder and director of Afrigod has called on Nigerians to act fast in checkmating the growing problem of climate change that is already having a negative effect across the globe. Ingmar Rentzhog founder & CEO of We Don't Have Time, said why the world was doing everything possible to overcome the threat of the current pandemic, we cannot lose sight of even the bigger crisis facing our planet and its people. When the global economy restarts, it must do so with a clear and urgent direction through a low carbon future.
